Korean Tomatoes - A Quick Recipe:
Let's start cooking with the marinade: for it, dissolve sugar and salt in vinegar, mix so that all the crystals dissolve.
Now you can pour in any vegetable oil or a mixture of vegetable oils, for example, refined sunflower and sesame or corn and linseed.
Carrots are very, very traditional for Korean snacks. Let's not forget about it in this salad - it will well emphasize the taste of tomatoes, refresh our tomato snack and make it crispier. We rub it on a Korean special shredder with long “noodles”. The aesthetics of the dish is guaranteed!
Now let's move on to the main ingredients. Sweet peppers in the recipe are used for dressing with garlic, which will soak the tomatoes. If you have a small pepper, it is better to take a few pieces so that the dressing is enough for all the tomatoes. We clean it from seeds, rinse the cavity and, cutting into medium cubes, place it in the chopper bowl. We also add garlic to the peppers.
Grind in the bowl of the chopper into gruel or use a meat grinder (in last resort, you can grate everything on a regular iron grater). Korean-style tomato dressing is ready!
We cut strong, tight tomatoes (cream, Baku, brown) into two halves, removing the dense part near the tail. We spread it in a plastic container or container that can be tightly closed with a lid, slices up.
Spread a small portion of garlic-pepper dressing on each half of the tomato.
Then put some grated carrots, dividing it into several portions according to the number of layers.
Grind carrots with fresh dill.
Sprinkle dill with coriander (ground and a pinch of whole peas if desired), black pepper and hot red pepper, also distributing a portion of spices according to the number of layers of tomatoes.
Close the lid, shake lightly and place in the refrigerator. Korean-style instant tomatoes should be marinated for about 6-8 hours, and during this time it is necessary to turn the container over several times or mix the tomatoes several times so that those on top get their portion of the marinade. Since the tomatoes will let their own juice from exposure to salt, vinegar and sugar, after 5-6 hours the marinade will replenish with liquid and all tomato slices will be under its influence.

How to cook the most delicious Korean-style tomatoes
To begin with, all vegetables and herbs need to be washed. We clean the peppers from seeds. We clean the garlic from the husk.
Put the prepared ingredients in the blender bowl.
We grind. Instead of a blender, you can use a meat grinder with a fine or medium grate and skip vegetables and herbs through it. In any of the two options, we will end up with a beautiful motley mixture of peppers, garlic and herbs. It is better to use peppers in contrasting colors, then the dressing will look even more appetizing.
Now let's move on to the tomatoes. With them, everything is simple: wash and cut. How many pieces to cut, we decide based on the size of the available tomatoes. small tomatoes enough to cut into two parts. We can cut the middle ones lengthwise into three thick rings or into four slices. Particularly large specimens are cut arbitrarily, but not smaller.
Let's prepare the marinade. To do this, mix vinegar, oil, sugar and salt in a bowl. Beat the marinade lightly until the sugar crystals dissolve in it.
Next, you need to decide on the dishes in which the Korean tomatoes will be marinated. Usually a jar or container is used. Both options will work.
Pack the tomatoes tightly into a container.
Lay on top of them vegetable dressing. Pour everything with marinade, cover with a lid and shake the contents of the container well.
We send the container with Korean-style tomatoes to the refrigerator for 8 hours. Periodically shake the tomatoes (at least 4-5 times in the first 8 hours).
Ready-made Korean-style tomatoes can be stored in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks.
